I had the pleasure of seeing a Range rover/series 2 hybrid trying to snatch recover a 90 last year. The guy in the 90 got a shock when the rear crossmember from the hybrid went flying past his window :shock:

I fitted SU's to mine. Much more reliable than the strombergs and easier to tune. They will fit on to the same manifold but the linkages are always the problem. I had to bodge up some for mine.

I have sold out!

Hi guys,

Its official, I am a V8 sell out. I have just bought a 1995 300tdi 3 door disco :shock:

I don't feel to bad as I managed to pay less for the disco than I sold my stage 1 for. Will have to wait a while until the funds build up again and I can buy another stage 1.

The chassis number should be stamped onto the side of one of the front chassis legs near where the springs attach.
